Containment is a great idea. Let them go Communist and we will contain them. just like we did in Afghanistan. and in Camranh Bay and everything else. No. if you want to have a Soviet base down there. as we have in Cuba. then continue to do nothing. I say we cannot tolerate another Soviet base in this hemisphere. and the time to do something is while we have got some people down there willing to fight and die for their freedom. The Hamilton amendment says if you want to eat. leave home. cross the border. and become a refugee.
